    Re: Tele neck

    Used to be, Tele necks had a much squarer heel than Strats, so to fit a Tele neck to a Strat, you'd have to shave the Tele neck or square out the Strat's neck pocket.

    I have, however, put recent Tele necks on Strats with no problems, so I think they're using more of a "universal" heel these days.

    So, the answer is, it depends on how true to vintage specs the Tele neck is.
